Integrated biorefinery for cellulosic ethanol and spherical nanolignin production from coconut waste
Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Green coconut waste was subjected to different fractionation methods to obtain integrated lignin nanoparticles and cellulosic ethanol. Pretreatment with gradual addition of dilute sulfuric acid provided a higher structural hemicellulose precursor yield (68.2%).

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Children's learning increasingly extends into everyday informal settings, but what counts as learning in these contexts remains insufficiently understood. Focusing on family travel as a mobile and socioculturally situated informal learning context, this study adopts a sociocultural perspective and uses liquid learning as a sensitising concept ...

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.
